Dilation results in enlargement or reduction of the original figure. For a scale factor greater than 1, the result would be an enlargement. The coordinates of the vertices of the triangle are

(3, - 3), (0, - 6) and (6, - 6)

If it is dialated with a scale factor of 5, then each coordinate would be multiplied by 5. The new coordinates of the vertices of the dilated figure would be

(3 * 5, - 3 * 5) = (15, - 15)

(0 * 5, - 6 * 5) = (0 , - 30)

(6 * 5, - 6 * 5) = (30, - 30)

Thus, the coordinates of the new figure are (15, - 15), (0 , - 30) and (30, - 30)
